No to Fascists! Defend Tom Alter!
Petition in Support of Dr. Tom Alter
October 6, 2025
After being recorded speaking at the Revolutionary Socialism Conference on September 7, Dr. Tom Alter has been targeted by reactionary activists and was fired. Despite a temporary injunction leading to his reinstatement, Tom is still prohibited from teaching and his job is in jeopardy.
For two hundred years, socialist politics have had an active presence in the United States. Historian Tom Alter is a distinguished representative of that tradition. Standing with Tom Alter is vital to defending freedom of speech and the space for critical thinking today.
